This report contains the results of a study program to devise and investigate light weight, compact antennas for forming multiple simultaneous independent beams within a limited spacial sector. The specific concept investigated in the report is the use of constrained feed overlapped subarray techniques for sidelobe control. The use of overlapping suppresses grating lobe radiation and allows wider subarray separation and inherently simpler and lighter beam forming matrices than are possible using conventional approaches.
